kev, why would The Secret Ones use planes to hit 2 buildings (even if only to offer a plausible excuse for the secretly planted explosives) and not use one on the pentagon - and why, for that matter, use a cruise missile when said missiles are actually pretty goddamn easy to see by potentially millions of people, when you could also just use previously planted explosive, like in the WTC? most any explanation that could be provided is needlessly complex and points towards the utter fail of the whole theory it seeks to support

hello kitty 9/11 on sunday

yeah, in hindsight i was far happier climbing at beacon sunday than prying off choss in the wilderness

Great question. One that will likely be thrown to the wind and back lashed with lots of sarcasm from the peanut gallery. i think gene was more interested in your answer? there never was a plane? it was dissappeared by aliens? the passengers were all cia plants? i seem to recall near a 100 people onboard, are there families in on the thing?

god damn play by play of your life. feel free to ignore it for my part, i like to remember what i've done and won't if it ain't writ down - a # of pages ago too it seemed only proper, amongst the bitter bitching, to show the world that some beatards do actually climb out there w/ regularity i actually think it'd be neat if all the cc.com beatards kept a day-by-day journal, updated each time so you could see everything at a glance, so, at the end of the season, we could compare our years

dunno 'bout planes, but holy jeebus the hindenberg was looking pretty rough there near the end

9/18 - afterschool corner lap - hot stone even in the shade - jim n' adam on the ledge - casual conspiracy chatting - thoroughly tired of construction on 14 by now...

if you can dig that, you must watch "everythign is illuminated" [video:youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id15tjDK3K0

do major league baseball world series winners work as a predictor of presidential election outcomes? year - party won - league won 1912 - d - al 1916 - d - al 1920 - r - al 1924 - r - al 1928 - r - al 1932 - d - al 1936 - d - al 1940 - d - nl 1944 - d - nl 1948 - d - al 1952 - r - al 1956 - r - al 1960 - d - nl 1964 - d - nl 1968 - r - al 1972 - r - al 1976 - d - nl 1980 - r - nl 1984 - r - al 1988 - r - nl 1992 - d - al 1996 - d - al 2000 - r - al 2004 - r - al 2008 - d - nl nl/al = 8/17 d/r = 13/12 # of time nl won that republicans won: 2 # of time al won that republicans won: 10 # of time nl won that dems won: 6 # of time al won that dems won: 7 so: dems X3 more likely to win when NL wins republicans slightly more likely to win when AL wins: 10 vs 7 current best teams in b-ball per major league standings as of 9/18/12: 1st - NL - washington nationals - .610 2nd - NL - cincinnati reds - .601 3rd - AL - texas rangers - .596 4th - tie AL/NL - oakland a's/san franny giants - .571 5th - NL - atlanta braves - .570 6th - AL - fuckign yankees - .568 so...the bones point in favor once again for obama?

i particularly like the picture of the fool guzzling a cheeseburger down in the "alpine nutrition" chapter

longest streak for a party 1912-2008: democrats - 5 consecutive elections (once) republicans - 3 consecutive elections (twice, dems haven't managed this once except fdr)

like the poet said: sometimes you wear the magic underwear, sometimes the magic underwear wears you?

this wouldn'ta happened if the caine-train was still rolling!!!

# of incumbents to lose during an active war: 0/4

come on now, i just did my exhaustive research! where are #'s? how many afflicted challengers vs winners?

law of large #'s of course calls any meaningful deductions based on just 25 trials into question

in the spirit of predicting the 2012 election result, thought it would be neat to share the #'s w/ my government classes this week and knocked together this list (care to fact check?) elections from 1912-2008: 25 # of elections won by republicans: 12/25 # won by democrats: 13/25 # of elections in which an incumbent president ran: 16 # of election won by an incumbent president: 12/16 # lost by incumbent: 4/16 of incumbents losing a re-election, # that were republican: 3/4 # of elections involving an incumbent running during a bad economic downturn (a bit subjective?): 5 # of time incumbents won despite bad economy: 3/5 analysis: - all things being equal, randomness seems to predict which party will win an election (near 50/50%) - incumbents have great advantage, win 3/4 of the time - democratic incumbents are more likely to win than republicans - the economy being bad hurts incumbents, but they still have an advantage deduction: obama wins in 2012? interesting complication: the only democratic incumbent to lose a re-election during this 100 year period did lose during a bad-economy (carter) - so less confidence in obama?

What evidence? Pictures found on the web is evidence. How do you know any of that is real? Are you real? Is Beacon Rock real? Come on guys.....grab your tinfoil hats and meet us out there.... come on, 'bone, that's a fart in a stiff breeze - yes, of course, a court of law has a "chain of custody" for every bit of evidence and that's critical for the confidence in a final verdict, but, short of either of us doing the legwork on that right now, let's assume the chain is in fact legit - assuming those are legit pix, can you at least admit an inkling of a doubt in your patent assertion that ALL of 9/11 is a giant conspiracy plot? if not, than you have all the hoof-prints of a died in the wool crazy. if you can admit it is a good chain, still don't mean you're wrong of course, but it is a blow, no? jesus, if nothing else, hope you're on my jury when the shit goes down

Spoken like a true......follower. does this mean you don't want to give the group your take on rob's collection of evidence, which you asked for?

jesus christ, a fine example of something so astute it sucks - how many good comedies can you watch that end up leaving you feeling so depressed?

so, woodward and bernstein were actually cia-operatives? mother jones takes her marching orders from the leon panetta?

where you moving off to, old boy?

and four official languages and a pocket-knife w/ 327 different functions? An army knife and no army! :-) actually, according to my recent and exhaustive wikipedia research, they do indeed have an army (and an air force and navy), but only 5% of the force is professional, the rest being conscript, and the whole lot of them storing their weapons in their homes! (surely that can't include the f-18 pictured though?)

thought that shit just literally grew like weeds there? would be paradise, really, w/o all the fucking people n' no booze...

pretty much sums up my summer what extreme survival kit doesn't come w/ 20 individual filters per day?
